KOHIMA: Kewhimiapfu Mechu Krotho (KMM) the apex women’s organization of Kohima village today expressed deep disappointment with the State government over the delay in taking a decision with reference to the Naga Hospital Kohima. “If the government fails to take positive action on NHK issue by the end of September 2005, the organization will be compelled to take its next course of action,” the organisation warned.
In a representation submitted to the State Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio, the organization demanded the government to immediately terminate the MoU with the Dunlop group and ensure the early completion of the NHK with some reputed contractor.
A copy of representation made available to The Morung Express said that as an apex women organization of the Kohima village, it had been playing an instrumental role in raising vital issues about health care and services in the premier hospital.
“Therefore, the violation of terms of the contract by the Sir Edward Dunlop Hospital Limited leading to the non-completion of the NHK complex and exorbitant payment of money to the concerned by the government is strongly objected by the KMK,” the organization said.
The organization President Thinuokhrieu Tseikhanuo and Secretary Khrielatuou Belho recalled that it had met the then Medical Minister Thenucho on March 16, 2005 and Dr. Shurhozelie, Chairman of the Government Committee on DAN Charter of Demand on March 27, 2005 and expressed its demand for termination of contract with the Dunlop group. A memorandum was also submitted to the Committee on March 31, 2005 in this regard, it added
